Kill The Plumber reviews

When I saw this game I told myself that it had to be a little indie game really nice with atypical gameplay so I bought it without hesitation and it was a very frustrating disappointment... The gameplay is slow and heavy, the game would have won to be a little more nervous. Then if you were looking for an action/adventure plateform go your way this game is of advantage a puzzle game/Jigsaw with some platform elements. In the game the plumber has quite risky reactions, from one part to another he will not have at all the same reaction while you have done the same action to a few pixels near... In conclusion if you have 5 euros to spend or that it is on sale and that you are not afraid to be a little frustrated this game is not that bad but I find that it could clearly have been a good indie game and that it has a little spoiled its potential.

KTP is a friendly little game that will allow you to put yourself in the skin of various mushrooms, turtles and blocks wanting revenge of Mari... Finally, the Plumed plumber invading their areas! The gampelay is funny and is doing quite well to give this impression of being antagonists, and not just as one might fear to be a basic plateform by saying "you are the villain". Each table is a small puzzle game where we control one to several creatures, often vulnerable, we go well in the thing. Some tables are relatively frustrating because you have to be reactive with a soft control, but overall it's fun. The graphics and music are clearly inspired by the Mario universe without being a total copied/pasted, so the sauce takes pretty well too. You will occupy a few hours, is fun and offers content to unlock by making tables perfect for the most fierce. :)

Kill the plumber is one of those games that takes a well-known concept (references to Mario in the game are not really hidden! if not explicitly named, all his universe is cheerfully pumped) and that reverses the gameplay (a bit like Spoiler alert , which reversed the flow of time in a platformer). Here we have quite short levels in which a plumber tries to reach the exit, and you play the role of monsters, responsible for putting sticks in the wheels of said plumber by killing him in various ways. If the concept is relatively interesting (if one sets aside the manifest flight of license), execution sometimes leaves to be desired. The reversal of gameplay ultimately transforms most levels into puzzles to solve with the right timing, and for the most complicated levels, the engine seems to have a slight share of randomness since the movements of the plumber are not always 100% Fixed. The controls are not terrible, when it comes to controlling mobs with a large freedom of movement it is often quite painful. The game is generally pulled down by its less than average achievement, and access to all areas of the game will require validating all speedruns, which consist of putting all levels of an act in a row in record time, implying to learn all the levels of an act by heart and is very boring.
